Squidoo gave this model a college try and, in my view, it really failed to take off. Now here comes Lijit in its wake.
Lijit is a new invitation-only social network where you can share your favorite links and blog posts. Basically you sign up on the site to become an "informer." You find cool things on the Web and show them to your network. The twist is that you don't just recommend sites on Lijit, but you flag the bad guys too.
Ugh. Maybe Lijit should quit while they're ahead. Can anyone make sense of this? Why do we need sites like these when we have digg?
